Study: “Western Diet” High In Meat, Dairy, Refined Grains Increases Risk For Death From Prostate Cancer

I just posted about a study which found that a higher intake of dairy foods increased death from prostate cancer for men who had been diagnosed. Here’s a study by the same group of authors, using the same cohort: 926 men from the Physicians’ Health Study.

“The results of this study are consistent with previous findings showing eggs and poultry consumption is associated with two to four times the risk of prostate cancer progression and linking dairy consumption to the development of prostate cancer in the first place. In contrast, a whole-food, plant-based diet and other healthy lifestyle changes have been shown to reverse the progression of prostate cancer in men with early stage disease.”

A thought … these men with prostate cancer are all physicians. You would think they know what to eat, to reduce their risk of progression. You would think they know the science, have read the studies. No? Yes?
